Healthcare/Digital Patient Experience
Digital patient experience
A connected digital front door, from finding a provider to post-visit follow-up, that reduces friction for patients and load for staff.
In short
The digital patient experience, often called the digital front door, is the connected set of digital touchpoints a patient uses across their journey, from finding a provider and booking, through intake and the visit, to follow-up. Noseberry builds digital front door experiences that reduce abandoned appointments, incomplete registrations and call-centre load, with provider search, self-scheduling, digital intake, reminders and patient navigation, EHR-integrated and HIPAA-aligned. We design for real patients, including anxious, busy and less digitally confident ones, because a front door only works if everyone can walk through it.
What is a digital front door?
A digital front door is the connected patient journey delivered through digital channels, so patients can find care, book, register, attend and follow up without friction, and without a phone call at every step. It joins together tools that too often live in separate systems.
Where patient engagement focuses on keeping patients involved in their care, the digital front door is the wider journey around it. Engagement is one room; the front door is the whole path from the street to the clinic and back.

Where patient engagement fits
Patient engagement software is a core part of the digital front door, the tools that keep patients involved between and around visits. If your priority is engagement specifically, start there; if it is the whole journey, this is the place.
